Is it possible to integrate coded UI with any other scripting languages?
Since Coded UI doesn't support many custom controls and third party controls, it would be better if we could integrate coded UI with scripting, like Perl scripting.
There is no official support for Pearl script from microsoft. But you can integrate it with VB script. For your kind information, CodedUI does support all the HTML and WIN custom controls, and partially supports the 3rd party controls like KendoUI, Telerik. You just need to produce the correct properties.. Good luck !!
We have switched to using FlaUI, https://github.com/FlaUI/FlaUI, to handle our Coded UI. We use C# so I'm not sure if it is usable by other languages but it is very helpful.

We can use databases sqlite,mysql etc with python and qt.But i dont know which database is used in gtk and how to use it.can anybody help me to find the database for gtk and also give some example for HOW TO USE IT (i am beginner).
GTK+, or the GIMP Toolkit, is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, but it is not a programming language itself. It is written in C but has been designed from the ground up to support a wide range of languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides an effective method of rapid application development, therefor you can use any of the technologies you wrote.
As ergosys said, GTK favors no database API. You can use what you want.
I want to do UI testing of my complex WPF application. I have come across two libraries for UI Automation:
Coded UI Test
Microsoft UI Automation Library.
I am confused in above two options. Please let me know where should I use which library?
wanted to know prons and cons of both?
Thanks

Doing some web testing and need a way to fill out forms automatically without much user interference. For OSX there is Fake (FakeApp.com) but is there an equivalent for Windows systems that are not Firefox/Chrome extensions?
Selenium RC? It's a UI scripting host commonly used for exactly what you want to do; automated UI testing of websites. It's browser-independent; just needs JavaScript enabled.
Google's toolbar has autofill.
Although that might fall under your category of extensions.
At the moment Iam evaluating java web frameworks. More precisely Iam talking about GWT, JSF2 and apache wicket. One very importent criteria in this evaluation is prototyping.
The prototyping process in my company can be described by the folloing:
The customer can produce GUIs with an easy to use WYSIWYG editor, by drag&drop-ing web components on the corporate predefined website structur. There is also a need for some litte dynamic being like navigation from one frame to another.
So Iam looking for tools. These tools should not only provide nice GUIs but also deliver
some basic code, which can be forwarded to the development. The aim is to avoid missunderstandings between designers and developers as much as possible. More or less the
developers just have to implements the code, but not to implement the optical requirements.
In addition it would be desirable to customize the components thats been used in the WYSIWYG editor. Does anyone know any good tools for the mentioned frameworks (GWT, JSF2, wicket)?
One of the challenges with WYSIWYG tools for UI is that you generally have to pick between rapid prototyping and maintainable code. Even then, as soon as you want to do something that's not supported by the prototyping tool, you can implement it as you would without the prototyping tool, but your round-trip functionality (namely turning your app back into something that can be edited) is broken or crippled unless extra work is done to generate the metadata that the editor needs.
Upgrading between major releases is another issue. Vendors and groups who have developed these tools have a historically spotty record of when they stop supporting older versions, reasonably because of limited resources and sometimes difficult problems with how to track solid innovation happening in the framework itself.
My suggestion instead is to prototype with an RIA prototyping tool like Balsamiq Mockups or use a grid system like 960 Grid to generate rapid prototypes, then use a web development framework that allows your developers to run the code with or without the backend server. Wicket has a tag called that is great for this kind of thing -- web devs can fill a div with stuff that a component should generate, and Wicket devs can wrap the contents of that tag with after they implement it. Both parties can coexist for a long time that way.
Try GWT Designer for GWT.

There's nothing like this for Wicket that I know of. The closest you would get to any kind of resource reuse from your customer would be to give them a drag and drop HTML editor - the resulting HTML could then form the basis of Wicket page/panel layout.
if you are planing to use a javascript library, you may use extjs,

they have developed a nice designer

there is also a port of ext in GWT

You have to pay for a commercial license if your application isn't open source!
What programming languages are best suited to create technical charts for stocks on the server side and then stream out to http and see it on the browser.
Thanks

It is hard to say what is "best".
This is something that Python can do well since it has add-on libraries for complex mathematical data manipulation such as NumPy and for quantitative finance such as Quantlib. Matplotlib is a very flexible Python charting library.
In addition, there is an IronPython-based spreadsheet called Resolver One that is popular in the financial services industry and they have an add-on that turns any spreadsheet into a web application.
If you did decide to use Resolver, you should be able to use almost any Python or .NET library and integrate it with your application.
I would suggest that you take a look at SVG as the graphical format for the technical charts because you can zoom into these charts in the web browser.
Any language with a graphical library will do. I know of implementations in Perl, C++, and Java
The perfect language for you would be Scala, here's why. You can write your serverside program using Scala, and you can then use the Scala.js framework to display the output(The Chart) to the browser(Client Side). The output will then be handled using Javascript.
Many websites currently use this method, for example, Twitter and Facebook.
